I recently put a description and link onto the notmuch web pages. > Should we include a separate utils directory in the notmuch repository > with auxiliary programs like this? I wouldn't do so. But that is not a very strong opinion of mine. In general, I like it if I see a repository containing one specific tool, and that one cleanly interfaces through specified interfaces with another tool. These two things are no longer as cleanly visible once notmuch-deliver was part of the notmuch repository. > Or should we implement this functionality within the notmuch binary > itself? That's another option, of course.

I'm working on that (and other parts of the web pages) as I go on with exploring the ``notmuch world''. I'll also take the liberty to put stuff from the mailing list or IRC discussions into web pages, for we have to document this notmuch beast ;-), and it's better to have a generic place to refer people to, instead of discussing the same things more than once. If someone disagrees with any of this, I'm open to discuss these items. Gr??e, Thomas -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
